Flexible Tools, to empower new mining generations

Be a step ahead, strategic decisions tested

Our Solutions
Built for large data sets &
information

Mining companies use Opencontour to develop and optimize the design of their mines with its customizable and flexible features.

GPU technology for leach recovery

Built for large data sets &
information

We use GPU technology in our leach recovery modeling to incorporate, and increase our computational capability. Processes that could take hours to set-up and run can now be accelerated and delivered in minutes.

Web-Based architecture, accesible everywhere

Vertical Extraction Mining

With Opencontour, engineers are able to quickly import base surface contours and block models to rapidly generate graphical representations of pits. This makes planning and reviewing mid bench contours, Geotech inter-ramp angles, and other ramp and cut requirements a straightforward process.

Vertical Extraction Mining

To maximize metal recovery and reduce solution waste, a software algorithm determines where it is most optimal to leach based on metrics (such as solution-to-ore ratio). Using this information, mine operators can determine loading scenarios that will improve leaching performance across the pad.

Vertical Extraction Mining

Nuestro módulo Open Pit Scheduler está diseñado para la secuencia a mediano y largo plazo. Además de acceder a reportes pre configurados, los usuarios tienen la opción de agregar datos manualmente mediante códigos o editando tablas y gráficos a través de Plotly (API de terceros)

Vertical Extraction Mining

Un algoritmo del software identifica dónde es más óptimo lixiviar basándose en parámetros (ejemplo, ratio de lixiviación) para maximizar la recuperación del metal y reducir la pérdida de solución.

Esta información permite a los supervisores tomar decisiones respecto a la secuencia de descarga de mineral para mejorar el rendimiento de la lixiviación en leach pad

Vertical Extraction Mining

Our Mine Scheduler solution is designed for mid and long-range scheduling. In addition to accessing pre-populated reports, users have the option to input data manually via scripts or by editing charts and graphs.

Vertical Extraction Mining

In our quest to support new technologies that look at lowering the environmental footprint created by traditional mining methods, Opencontour developed a Vertical Extraction Mining Software Solution.

Vertical Extraction Mining

En nuestro afán de apoyar las nuevas tecnologías que buscan reducir la huella ambiental creada por los métodos tradicionales de minería, Opencontour desarrolló el software Vertical Extraction Mining.

Vertical Extraction Mining

The Heap Leach Stacking solution can be configured for monthly, quarterly, yearly, or as a user-defined period. By discretizing blocks and identifying where and when the ore was placed, we provide detailed metallurgical accounting data.

Vertical Extraction Mining

Con Opencontour, los ingenieros pueden importar rápidamente contornos de superficie base y modelos de bloques para generar de manera rápida representaciones gráficas de las excavaciones. Esto facilita el proceso de planificación y revisión de contornos intermedios de bancos, ángulos geotécnicos entre rampas y otros requisitos de rampas y cortes.

Vertical Extraction Mining

La solución de apilamiento para lixiviación en pilas se puede configurar para periodos mensuales, trimestrales, anuales o según lo definido por el usuario. Al discretizar los bloques y determinar dónde y cuándo se colocó el mineral, proporcionamos datos detallados de contabilidad metalúrgica.

OPENCONTOUR

Mine planning Software for open pit and heap leach mining.

Opencontour is an intuitive application software that helps mining companies develop and optimize the design of their mines.

We are mining engineers who understand the challenges miners face every day. Opencontour helps take the guesswork out of your planning decisions. We created Opencontour from our own experiences with mining software programs that didn't meet our expectations. As a result, Opencontour helps ease the burden of difficult mine planning decisions by measuring cost-benefit scenarios for alternate mine designs and schedules.
